An instant and comprehensive introduction to Europe, perfect for developing knowledge of Europe, its countries, capital cities and national flags. This kind of classroom decor provides a real learning opportunity during the European Day of Languages, and this set is also a great visual prompt when you are discussing world geography in general, and Europe in particular. There may be a number of countries and capital cities that students do not know, or are not aware of, so the banners help students develop their general awareness, knowledge and understanding of Europe and its geography. It’s useful to show students a clear map of Europe, so that students can visualise the location of each country and capital city, not only as an individual location with Europe, but also as a location in relation to other European countries and capital cities.
Please note this is the European Day of Languages edition of our Geography Europe Countries, Capitals & flags bunting - if you have already purchased the Geography edition, there is no need to purchase this set.
There is a range of islands, such as the Faroe Islands, and there are also some countries, for example Armenia, that are often classed as belonging either to Europe or to Asia. Each banner has a small tag to hang with a clip from string across the classroom and other learning areas. Laminate if you can, as the bunting hangs more successfully, and remains in excellent condition for years, so it’s definitely worth the extra prep time and expense.

EUROPEAN DAY OF LANGUAGES EUROPE COUNTRIES CAPITAL CITIES FLAGS PRESENTATION & QUIZ
The resource is non-editable in a zipped format. It may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use.
An instant introduction to Europe which really helps students develop their awareness of European countries, capital cities and flags. There are***60 countries*** featured in the quiz. Each country is presented individually with its capital city and flag - as you show the slides, encourage students to shout out the country names as they appear - this tends to aid memory quite considerably - I point out the location of each country on the background map, which helps students situate each country within the continent, and visualizing the location of the countries again aids memory.
The presentation is followed by a series of 100 questions. The questions are structured slightly differently to differentiate the challenge a little: some focus on the countries, others on capital cities, and some on flags. Taken together, students will definitely develop a sound locational knowledge of the countries of Europe, their capital cities and flags.
The quiz works particularly well with several teams - encourage each team to choose a European-themed team game. Teams can either take it in turns to answer a question, but it’s also great fun, and keeps up a lively pace, to play as a Shout it out! quiz - whoever shouts out the correct answer first wins the point.
The resource is not editable for copyright reasons - the presentation moves on with a click. Each question slide is followed by the relevant answer slide - simply click, and it appears!
Please note this is the European Day of Languages edition of my Geography Europe Presentation & Quiz - please ensure you have not already purchased the geography edition

Ideal for the European Day of Languages - an instant and comprehensive introduction to Europe , perfect for developing knowledge of European countries, capital cities and national flags.
This kind of classroom display provides a real learning opportunity during September, in the run-up to, and on the European Day of Languages. There may be a number of countries and capital cities that students do not know, or are not aware of, so the posters help students develop their general awareness, knowledge and understanding of Europe. It’s useful to show students a clear map of Europe, so that they can visualise the location of each country and capital city, not only as an individual location with ***Europ***e, but also as a location in relation to other European countries and capital cities.
There is a range of islands, such as the Faroe Islands, and also some countries, for example Armenia, that are often classed as belonging either to Europe or to Asia. Some countries have two posters, such as Greece, officially known as the Hellenic Republic - you can choose either the more frequently-used Greece or the Hellenic Republic to display.
This is the European Day of Languages edition of our Geography Europe posters: please ensure you have not already purchased that set.
There are two formats to choose from - Europe map background or plain without frame, which keeps prep costs at a minimum. Laminate if you can, even though it’s extra prep time and expense. The posters display better, as flashcards they’re a lot easier to manipulate, and they do remain in excellent condition for years, so you’ll be able to recycle them many times.

MUCHAS GRACIAS Y BUEN APRENDIZAJE!
ESL EFL ENGLISH FOR CHILDREN BEGINNER ENGLISH FRUITS AND VEGETABLES I HAVE, WHO HAS? 3 GAMES @ £2.50 EACH IN THE BUNDLE
All products consist of non-editable files in zipped formats. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
Set 1 focuses on fruits in English; Set 2 on vegetables in English, and Set 3 on a combination of fruits and vegetables in English, ideal for advanced beginner English and intermediate English students.
I have… Who has… ? is a lively & communicative whole-group language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing target vocabulary in English. The game has a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation.
It’s perfect for pronunciation practice too. Point out particular phonemes and sounds, such as the soft c in lettuce compared to the hard c in carrot, and the addition of n to a when preceding a noun starting with a vowel, such as an aubergine or an orange for example.
The aim of the game is to create an English sentence chain as quickly as possible. The game works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface.
There are 29 fruits featured across the 3 games: green apple; red apple; banana; cherry; date; fig; gooseberries; grapefruit; green grapes; red grapes; honeydew melon; kiwi; lemon; lime; mango; nectarine; olive; orange; papaya; peach; pear; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberry; watermelon.
and 28 vegetables: artichoke; asparagus; aubergine; green beans; beetroot; broccoli; Brussels sprout; cabbage; carrot; cauliflower; celery; cucumber; garlic; leek; lettuce; mushroom; onion; peas; green pepper; red pepper; yellow pepper; potato; sweet potato; radish; spinach; sweetcorn; tomato; zucchini
All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocab - the images help students infer meaning from context, supported by the visual prompts and clues - this in turn supports them in developing their English language skills in the longer and more complex sentences. There is***implicit input on grammatical concepts*** such as the***lack of adjectival agreement and gender***, and position of adjectives, which are often entirely new concepts for many ESL/EFL learners. Nouns feature definite, indefinite and partitive articles too. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more.
The question card template provides an additional learning activity, with students applying their developing English language knowledge creatively and practically, as they make game cards for the class - this is a really popular activity with my students.
Laminate the cards if you can - they’re more learner-friendly, and they remain in excellent condition for years.

THANKS AND ENJOY THE GAMES!
PRIMARY FRENCH KS2 FRENCH KS3 FRENCH FRUITS & VEGETABLES FRENCH I HAVE, WHO HAS? 3 GAMES @ £2.50 EACH
Files are non-editable in a zipped format. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They may not be copied, rewritten, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way. The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
The games feature a range of fruits and vegetables in French:
Set 1: focus on French fruits
Set 2: focus on French vegetables
Set 3: focus on a combination of both French fruits and French vegetables
I have, Who has? J’ai… Qui a… ? is a whole-group lively & communicative language learning game, perfect for practising, reinforcing & refreshing French target language.
The game has a multi-skill focus: listening, speaking & reading, with an important bonus focus on social interaction and participation. The game is perfect for pronunciation practice too - particularly with silent s, the non-/audible sound of x (deux and dix for example) and so on.
I point out particular phonemes and sounds too - such as the ch in champignons, the soft c in citron compared to the hard c in carotte , the eu in chou-fleur and the ei in groseilles.
The aim of the game is to create a French sentence chain as quickly as possible, starting with J’ai la première carte, and ending with the final card, C’est la dernière carte. The game also works well if the sentence sequence is placed on the floor, a longish table, or other flat surface. I created the game for my young beginner French learners, but I’ve also played the game with my older adult French learners, who really enjoy it too.
The design is four cards per page, which allows for a large font, which is really important for beginner language learners who are familiar with the written word, and starting to link spelling with sound. Try to print in color if you can - it adds to the visual appeal of the game, which is a real motivator for learning.
I always laminate my games cards, which is definitely worth the extra prep time and additional expense - the cards are far more learner-friendly, and last in excellent condition for years, so I get lots of use from them.
There are 29 fruits featured in the games: green apple; red apple; banana; cherry; date; fig; gooseberries; grapefruit; green grapes; red grapes; honeydew melon; kiwi; lemon; lime; mango; nectarine; olive; orange; papaya; peach; pear; pineapple; pumpkin; raspberry; redcurrants; rhubarb; starfruit; strawberry; watermelon.
with 28 vegetables: artichoke; asparagus; aubergine; green beans; beetroot; broccoli; Brussels sprout; cabbage; carrot; cauliflower; celery; cucumber; garlic; leek; lettuce; mushroom; onion; peas; green pepper; red pepper; yellow pepper; potato; sweet potato; radish; spinach; sweetcorn; tomato; zucchini.
All the fruits and vegetables may not be in my longer-term learning plan, but the learning objective moves beyond simply learning individual units of vocabulary. The images help students infer meaning from context, supported by the visual prompts and clues. This in turn supports them in developing their French language skills in the longer and more complex sentences.
There is implicit input on grammatical concepts such as adjectival agreement, gender, definite, indefinite and partitive articles and position of adjectives, either preceding or proceeding the particular noun. This is a very successful way of really getting the most of what looks like a straightforward game for consolidating the target vocabulary - it is actually so much more!
The question card template provides an additional learning activity, with students applying their developing French language knowledge creatively and practically, as they make game cards for the class. This is*** integral to successful language learning***, and it’s actually a really popular activity with my students. They read their new sentences to the whole class, and it’s generally a competition to see who can create the longest sentences with the most fruits.
Download, print out, laminate, cut out & shuffle the cards. Distribute the cards, one or two per student, depending on how many students you have in your group. I often play too - students really do enjoy it when I join in, and they seem to work that little harder on their concentration, reading out loud and pronunciation. Students walk around the room, talking to each other in their best French accent, sharing the information on their cards, until they have arranged the cards in the correct order. The game is also really successful when we play in teams against a timer, regularly over a longer-term series of lessons - students love to see if they can beat their own time record, as well as the other teams. The competitive element is a great motivator for learning too.

MERCI BEAUCOUP ET BON APPRENTISSAGE !
FRENCH RESOURCE BOX : FIVE RESOURCES @ £1.50 EACH
Files are non-editable in zipped formats. They are copyright, all rights reserved. They may not be copied, rewritten, amended, shared or distributed outside your own classroom in any way, The license for purchase is a single-user license only. Please read the Terms of Use carefully.
This French resource box is ideal for KS3 French, KS4 French and GCSE French revision. There are 5 resources, each for £1, featuring active, differentiated, multi-skill and independent learning activities. Some of the resources overlap learning stages, though I’ve found that students, regardless of ages, often benefit from, and genuinely enjoy, working with activities that are primarily designed for other ability or knowledge stages. This may be either as practice and revision, or as additional or more accessible and manageable challenge. These factors are all key to motivating learners to engage with, and progress in, a new language.
There’s certainly prep work involved with some of the resources – I always laminate my language and challenge cards for example, as they’re much more easy to manipulate, and so far more learner-friendly. They do however last in excellent condition for years, so for me, laminating is definitely worth the prep time and extra expense. You don’t have to prepare them all at once – the resources are definitely useful for the longer-term, so you can take your time with the prep, focusing on what you’re working with at any specific stage.
Over time, I’ve created activity folders with ready-made resources in, and give my students free-choice time – alone, in pairs or small groups. They decide what they’d like to work on for half an hour or so, and sometimes even a full lesson. We do this pretty regularly, as it’s great for keeping language fresh, and ideal for both consolidation and revision. Additionally, and equally importantly, it helps students develop independent learning skills, moving away from teacher-led learning, and gives them real insight into their own learning progress.
The workbooks, worksheets and word searches for example are good to go – simply print and photocopy.
